A week of good rain and with it came the fish. Six salmon and a good number of sea trout were caught during the week, undoubtedly there will have been others too. There are now fish right throughout the system and prospects look good whilst the water level holds.

Drummond Loch is currently closed due to green algae.

Wild Fisheries Review (WFR) Category 2 – For 2017 the River Earn is categorised as a Cat 2 river meaning that salmon may be kept in keeping with club rules and the recommendations of the Tay District Salmon Fisheries Board. Please continue to practise responsible angling and return the majority of salmon

Information on the Earn water level is available based on the Dalginross(Comrie) and Kinkell Bridge
monitoring stations. This is updated on an hourly basis and gives a good idea
of the current level - visiting anglers would be well advised to check this
when planning a trip. The graph shows the river level relative to a 'base
level'. The base level represents a typical summer level in the river and has
been calculated as the level that is exceeded for 95% of the time - it does not indicate the 'actual' height of
the water. Anglers will therefore find it helpful to check the level
given prior to setting out and then compare that with the actual water level in
the area where they plan to fish. Future visits to the Earn site will therefore
given them a point of reference on which to base any proposed trip to the
river. As a guide, 0m in practice means very difficult conditions with slack
water and increasing amounts of weed during the summer; so, it's not worth
really venturing out. A level around +6-9 inches is a good medium height.
A level at Comrie
that is considerably above that at Kinkell
often means either it has rained in the catchment area, or the Hydro
Board have started generating, and the level over the whole length of the river
is likely to rise as a consequence. For details of other, non-Tay system, rivers go the SEPA interactive map.
